* AlternativeJokeInterpretation: Is the weathergirl [=BekJut=] actually a transgender woman whose laziness extends to the point where she can't even be bothered transitioning, or was the job specifically called "weathergirl" but still ended up going to a hilariously unqualified man as a statement on male privilege?
* CrossesTheLineTwice: The Kates being pressured into eating literal faeces is disgusting, but the fact that the "donor" keeps referring to it as "my black shit" every chance he gets makes it funny in a cheeky sort of way.
